Heyman did mention the Cubs among the possible fits for Schwarber , but it seem like complete speculation to me .
-
Dodgers didn’t want a long term deal , so no problem . They just threw 23 on AAV to Diaz on a 3 year deal , just to have some fun and get in on the offseason action 😂
-
The latest from Jesse Rogers : SP mentions - Imai / King relievers - Suarez / Fairbanks / Stanek / Matz / Milner Thielbar and Pomeranz not out of the question Keller could price himself out of Cubs range
-
Yeah , Heyman has talk a good bit about Imai and the Cubs today . He believes there is a decent chance the Cubs sign him ( FWIW ) . I guess I feel more optimistic because the Dodgers don’t seem like they are involved . Giants and Mets are giving signs that they don’t want to do long term deals for SP . Red Sox have already added 2 SP and they seem focused on bats now . I don’t know , maybe they have a chance . I think Imai is their number # target with King as the main backup plan . I don’t think King is signing before Imai
-
Have a feeling these meetings will be boring . Starting pitching market is been held up by Imai , so I don’t expect anything from the Cubs until that happens ( meaningful mean ) . I could see Stanek this week 😂
-
So they are adding only 1 more reliever and it will be from the dumpster dive category . Great news
-
I really don’t care how hard he throws . Stanek sucks .
-
Ha , seems like Boob jump the fun .

Cubs are listed as one of the 3 serious suitors for Ranger Suarez , by Feinsand on mlb.com . Astros and Orioles the other two . People have sort of write him off because of the strikeouts comments by Hoyer and all the lefties they have , but I wouldn’t rule him out . Hoyer is more than anything else a value hunter . If he feels Suarez will give him the best value among the top SP , he won’t hesitate IMO , and Imanaga and Boyd are due for FA after the season anyway.

There’s a new story on the athletic about the Cubs interest in Alex Bregman . Don’t have access to the Athletic , so can’t post anything . My guess is that is something they would consider if they trade for Edward Cabrera ?

NVM

Also , Imai will be visiting a few select teams after the winter meetings
-
If Imai signs for his 6 year 150 million projection , they would have to pay his Japanese team around 25 million , I read
-
Only positive about this , is that it seems they are still willing to give a SP 100 + million . If they sign a SP I think it will be King for 4 years and 88 -92 million The bullpen on the other hand i am skeptical that we will see a 10+ signing . I think they may sign 1 guy in the 7 range and dumpster dive the rest .

Cubs Reportedly Interested In Reliever Ryan Helsley
Dfan25 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
If they were willing to go to this level , Devin Williams would be a Cub . After seen The news about Marquee , can’t help to think that Tom is up to his old tricks again . With how things look right now , we would be lucky to get another Phil Maton, in the pen .😂 -
Yeah , that deal has a bunch of deferrals as well . I am pissed about this , but not surprised . There were a lot of cuts today at Marquee as well . Feeling a bit uneasy now tbh . Hopefully not a sign of things to come in terms of spending

Cubs Reportedly Interested In Reliever Ryan Helsley
Dfan25 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Yeah , I think we are going to see a reliever run here in the next week or so , before the winter meetings . I thought Helsley was one of the guys they had the best opportunity to get . -
I think it would be really funny if after all this Cubs need power stuff and K’s , they end up with Ranger Suarez 😂 . Don’t get me wrong Suarez is a solid pitcher , it would just be funny . I don’t see them getting Framber or Imai . If they are going to sign an impact SP , then it’s probably King or Suarez

Cubs Reportedly Interested In Reliever Ryan Helsley
Dfan25 replied to Brock Beauchamp's topic in Chicago Cubs Talk
Since there is no rumor thread anymore , I didn’t know where to put this , and it has nothing to do with Ryan Helsley 😂. Anyway have no idea if this account is reliable , but saw this : -
Fairbanks does seem more likely to me than Williams . Cubs have been connected to him in the past , and the Athletic writers said to keep an eye on him
